Location
Sidi Kaouki is a quaint little Berber village located on the west coast of Morocco (on the Atlantic Ocean). Imagine donkeys walking the streets, cats in cafes, and dogs sleeping in the middle of the road. It's quiet, beautiful, and off the beaten path.
When you arrive there, you'll immediately feel its magic. The people are open and kind, and there's something in the air that immediately makes your worries melt away.
The ocean, stars, and sun are big there. You'll feel as if they're part of you and you're part of them. The sunsets over the ocean are dreamy and are often the centerpiece to the evenings.
You'll likely be invited to nights at the local restaurant, live music, and maybe a fire on the beach. It's an indescribable atmosphere - you'll have to feel it for yourself to understand it. If you're wanting an authentic, soul-changing surf experience, then Ibi Surf House SARL's surf camp is for you!
